[Intro]
Yo, I'ma tell you 'bout them four letter words
Your momma used to tell you about, uh-huh
I'm not talkin' 'bout cuss words
I'm talkin' 'bout this word, often said
But do we mean it?
I'ma tell you 'bout L-O-V-E, know what I'm sayin'
You get around your crew, I'm just "alright"
but you ain't say that last night
For real, you know, it's all gravy baby
Uh, yeah, it's all gravy baby
But uh, I'ma break it down to you like this
Uh, uh, hit me

Tryin' to get nobody comin' at me
Cause you with your good buddy
It seems to me it's all of a sudden
Cause the night before
You treated me so different, see

Tryin' to say it wasn't too funny
Sayin' that you playin' like you really love me
Sweet nothings, so you can
Cut somethin', touch somethin'
Last night you really thought you
Were tryna do something

[Chorus]
Don't you want me?
Don't you need me?
To give you kisses
And to hold you tight
Don't you love me?
Don't you trust me?
Cause I remember
That's what you said last night

So what you want to do baby?
Are you still showin' out? Are you actin' shady?
You can keep that boy, it's gravy baby
But I refuse to let you come around my way
And continue to play me baby
Cause I believed when you said to me
I was all you need
Or was you fakin' me?

[Chorus]

I really want to be your lover
I want you to love me like no other
If you feel you in a tired situation
Won't be the one that you're playin'
I know you feel the same way too
But you front in front of your crew
It's alright, I can play that too
As long as you remember
What you say you'll do

Don't you want me?

[Chorus: x2]

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
